The site looks great... but why did you only created the landing page with Xara?

I'm afraid I don't understand the question. I didn't only create the landing page with Xara. I created the entire site with Xara. Or perhaps you mean something else? Could you clarify?

I think I see what the issue is. There's nothing on the landing page that makes it obvious that the icons are clickable. That's an issue I need to correct. It should be made more obvious. A friend of mine who I showed the site to had a similar response to yours, and I just put two and two together. I guess I have to sacrifice a little on my "minimalist" design! Thanks for the response.

There, I added a little finger pointing to the first icon for direction and clarity. And halos around the selected icon (on desktop version). Check it out now. www.ResoundFour.com

I visited the site on my mobile and this is what I see. So I clicked the logo at the bottom

I think JamesD means that the site seems to be created on software other than xara, I see that it is based on the Mozernizer library and php and there is nothing to indicate that it is xara, not in the source (a line from the source code - 'http://www.resoundchurch.com/main/wp-content/plugins/ indicates wordpress plugin, and xara uses <span class= for text, but yours uses <p>, as far as I know now one has been able to put lines of text into a <p> to create proper paragraphs in xara) the site's even using woocommerce, strictly a wordpress plugin. In which case this should be moved to another part of the forum, I have been told that in this part of the forum the thread is moderated so surely the moderator must be checking if a site is created in xara or not, if not then maybe I can post some of my adobe muse sites here as well -

The circular resound church logo does link to a site that is made in Wordpress. So maybe that's what you're seeing? It's definitely made in Xara. The only exception I forgot, is I did use the Gimp to get the Gassian Blur effect on the background image. I could upload the .web file if you like?

As far as the text goes, I simply copy-pasted it out of a word processor and subsequently tweaked it within Xara as needed. As I recall, Xara asked me if I should keep the original formatting or not. So I guess technically it wasn't made 100% in Xara if you count the text and the background image, and the embedded YouTube videos.
